Of course to be complete, this image would include the ad's photographer, Thomas (who took this photograph and sent it in) and someone photographing him. (It makes sense if you don't think about it.)

Hong Kong: Amazing New Camera Phone

Not a disaster. My camera phone takes pictures of itself all the time. Sometimes in four dimensions.
Yeah, well my cameraphone takes pictures of YOUR cameraphone. Then it eats itself.
Now I am curious to see if the phone in the picture of the phone has the picture with the phone.
Wouldn't this work if they took the picture in front of a mirror?
it would seattle brad, but then the picture in the phone would be in reverse
am i missing the point here? the cam phone lens will be on the other side of the phone from the screen and they are taking a photo of them selves, fair enough they wouldnt be able to see the screen to take the photo but that not exactly unusual for that type of phone..
so you're saying it's a disaster because you cant see the photographer?? you're kidding right???
John... in the picture that was taken on the phone you can see them holding the phone... which means someone took a picture of them with a separate camera holding the phone and photoshopped it onto the screen of the phone.
The only way for this to work (I just tried it in a mirror) is if they had one of those swivel lenses (which they don't), but it does work if you do!!
Okay, the disaster here is that the lens is clearly pointing at them, not at the mirror. If it were pointing at the mirror, you would be able to see it. And if the lens is pointing at them, and not the mirror, you wouldn't see the phone, you would just see their heads, upper bodies, and maybe part of the guy's arm.
Spot on, Miranda, the lens is on the cover side of the phone, not the screen side, so mirrors have nothing to do with it. Great disaster.
and the man's left hand looks incredibly huge!
Half the comments regarding this disaster are further clarification for me to help understand how it is that there are so many ridiculous Photoshop disasters in the world.
My Sony Ericsson Can easily do such a feat. It just takes a space warping field and some optical lenses. It's only a 50lb accessory for the phone. Only a measly $5069873423452345...
No. The incredibly huge floating hand is taking a picture of them taking a picture with another camera.
I think he showing us a picture that he took in the past incorrectly, because I sure don't see a landscape behind them in the current picture, but the one in the phone has a background.
I get the feeling they didn't know how taking a pic with the mirror works.
Deaver, I noticed the background as well but the poses of the people are identical. Sadly this is just a f*ck up
It's not a diaster. They aren't taking a photo, he is showing you the wallpaper on his phone screen that was taken by another photographer, photoshopped to add the photo to the wallpaper of the phone in the photo and ... I've confused myself already.
Haha, great finding.
am i missing the point here?
Seems so.
you're kidding right???
No. You?
My brain is fried. I'm so confused.
First i was confused because i thought it was a mirror.
Then i understood few seconds after that it was an ad (yeah i know, it's written)
Then for those who didn't understand yet : the picture of the screen shouldn't show the phone itself but only the couple..
DISASTER YES!
so if the "eye" of the camera is pointed at the couple -- and -- someone is taking a picture of them --then--why would the photographer show up in the picture?
Wow, gives new meaning to the disclaimer *images simulated.
yeah, exactly what Sanh said
wow, it really does make more sense if you dont think about it.
Like several others, at first I didn't see it. Then I did. Now I wish I could unsee it. It's just a jump to the left, and then a step to the right.
It is supposed to demonstrate that the camera can remove you from the background. Come on people.
There is no way that a camera phone can take a snapshot of itself, like the image suggests.
It's a disaster!
Lazy is what it is....
ITS A MIRROR! They took the photo using a mirror so yes, it will have a pic of the camera.. good one anyways!
Except, Magdalena, as has been discussed, the lens for the camera is on the side facing them. Thus couldn't capture the image you see of them in a mirror.
It's not quantum physics...
Magdalena, cameras don't usually take photos of the back of themselves when they take photos in a mirror.
Ahhhh come on its a picture message?
IT'S A DISASTER, stop trying to find smart-arse ways to justify it.
It's wrong. And it's hilarious. Done.
I think it's also cool that the camera can give color to poor monochrome people.
Ah yes, I hate running into the random film noir person on the street. Also, anyone who posted on this topic and got it completely wrong, should be put in a time out for at least one week.
At first, I thought it was all about what looks like a security camera above the guy's head, to the right a bit. While you stare at the picture, trying to figure out how a camera took a picture of the non-lens side of itself, the government would record your face for its facial recognition database. But then it would only recognize you looking confused. Oh well, I guess it's just a disaster after all.
It's not a camera phone... it's a remote control device controlling ANOTHER camera that is actually taking the picture. This remote control device has a screen showing how the picture will look. The guy is showing us the screen as he presses the button on the remote to activate the actual camera taking the photo.
I'm kidding about all of this, of course, but it could be possible... couldn't it? Hmmm...
I think the girl is trying to punch herself in the head.
The mirror idea has nothing to do with this... because is not a mirror effect clearly.
Is like a surreal image when you see an endless reproduction of the same image again and again and again inside the same one.
Doesnt look like a disaster... but it is.
Anyway, doesnt bother me at all...
I'm not sure whether this is crappy photoshoppery or just an awkward pose, but does the girl sort of look like she's grabbing the phone's antenna with a small, mutated hand? O_O
By the way, that's not a disaster; it's like that camera from the Twilight Zone. It takes a picture of the future. Five minutes from now, they will take a picture with their camera phone...
This COULD be real, but it takes some work and two identical phones.
1 - Pose man and woman holding phone 1 in front of a real landscape
2 - Take picture of pose using phone 2.
3 - Pose man and woman in front of white screen, holding phone 2 displaying the picture taken in the previous step.
4 - Take picture of pose with camera and print it.
Ok, so it's a little contrieved. It could work.
Am I the only one who thinks it's weird you can see the background in the negative space from the man's right arm and his body. The girl's body should be there.
COOL..........WATCH OUT MY BLOGS ALSO
What about the perspective?
Is that a bathroom or what?
Are them on their knees on a sloping floor?
I can reproduce this same effect using the secondary camera on my Nokia N73 and a mirror.
Now, I have a question: Since when is a regular photo gimmick a Photoshop disaster? It's not like this "infinite mirror" effect hasn't been done before, with as much fakery/manipulation.
Ok I don't get it. I don't own a camera phone, and have never used one. But if the lens of the camera were on the same side as the screen of the camera, and the pic was taken into a mirror, wouldn't this be the image that got produced? Am I crazy? What am I doing wrong here? It seems totally legitimate to me.
(Ok, granted that most cameras don't have the lens and the screen facing the same direction, but if they did, this is what the result would, be, no?)

oh god i´m thick! i actually took me a few minutes to see what was wrong with this..
*shakesheadinshame*
Okay, everyone trying to justify this: Sure, it COULD be done. But do you really think the people making this ad did any of the things you suggest with mirrors and second phones? No, they did not. What would be the purpose of doing any of that, exactly?
It's quite plain that someone just screwed up here.
IT's a PHOTOSHOP disaster, because - whether it's possible (everything but the largest photo) or not possible (because I'd bet a DECENT camera was used to take the original - resolution... duh) - the PHOTOSHOP-ING is STOOOOPIT. What does it add? Does the color change and small photo repeat in the phone make this picture HOT? Does it make you want to buy the PHONE? NO... I totally agree... IT's A DISASTER!
WHY DO YOU TALK ABOUT NONSENCES?
For me, it looks like someone just took the photo of those two people when they where taking a photo of themselves. Wtf, there is not a mirror involved? And the brown thing, isn't that the street?
I don't know if I'm being stupid or something now, but there is no mirror guys..Someone is just taking a photo of them (when they are photoing themselves)..
OMG.....is this graphics designer kidding me or something!??!
